Grand Hyatt Seattle

With 457 luxury guest rooms, the Grand Hyatt Seattle is a premier large-scale hotel in the heart of downtown, designed to host major corporate events, conferences, and large travel groups. The hotel’s sophisticated design and extensive event infrastructure make it a top choice for expos and trade shows. Its prime location is a significant asset, placing attendees on the corner of 7th and Pine, directly adjacent to the Seattle Convention Center and within a short walk of iconic attractions like Pike Place Market and the high-end shopping at Pacific Place.

This property is purpose-built for large, complex functions, offering over 25,000 square feet of flexible, technologically advanced event space. The hotel features a wide variety of venues, with over 20 distinct meeting rooms, including two major ballrooms and a unique, state-of-the-art amphitheater. The largest venue is the 5,671-square-foot Leonesa Ballroom, which features rich wood paneling and can host up to 600 guests for a reception or 400 for a banquet. This is complemented by the 3,920-square-foot Princessa Ballroom, an elegant junior ballroom perfect for secondary events or large dinners.

A standout feature that sets this hotel apart for corporate presentations is the 150-seat Eliza Anderson Amphitheater. This dynamic venue is the only one of its kind in a Seattle hotel and is fully equipped with a 12-foot rear-projection screen, Ethernet connections at each seat, and broadcasting services, making it ideal for product launches, keynote addresses, and high-impact training sessions.

Organizing a large-scale event, from sourcing the venue to managing a block of 400+ rooms, creates a massive administrative burden. This is the exact travel chaos Engine was built to solve. For operations managers and project-based companies, booking on consumer sites is not an option. Our platform is designed for this complexity. Engine provides an end-to-end group booking service with dedicated trip managers who handle hotel sourcing, quote delivery, and contract management. We specialize in booking large crews and can manage logistics for 9,000+ travelers, all while providing white-glove service.

The attendee experience at the Grand Hyatt Seattle is supported by a robust collection of amenities. Guests have access to a 24-hour, 3,800-square-foot health club complete with a sauna, steam room, and whirlpool. For executive travelers, the 27th-floor Grand Club Lounge provides a private space with daily breakfast and evening receptions. The hotel lobby provides multiple dining and networking options, including the upscale Ruth’s Chris Steakhouse, Blue C Sushi, a New York-style deli, and a Starbucks, alongside a full-service business center.

For finance teams, the true value of booking with Engine is the unparalleled financial control. Instead of chasing contractors for receipts and struggling with spreadsheet reconciliation, our platform provides perfect cost allocation. You can track every travel expense by project code or job number. Furthermore, our Direct Bill feature solves cash flow and administrative headaches. Engine can extend a line of credit to pay for the entire group booking upfront, and your company receives a single, unified monthly invoice. This consolidated billing eliminates receipt chaos and gives your team a clear, simple financial record.
